Pre-set to 15% of the fare.
Tipping norms for uber & rideshares are their own world — different from restaurants, different from each other. This calculator comes pre-set to 15% so the default answer is already sensible; adjust to your situation and split between people if needed.
10–20% of the fare is typical; $1–2 minimum on short rides. Drivers keep 100% of in-app tips. Airport runs, luggage help, and late-night pickups argue for the top of the range.
Full price before discounts or coupons. The service took the same effort regardless of your deal.
Dropping to 10% signals displeasure without stiffing someone who may depend on tips for base pay. If the problem was management (long waits, wrong orders), the worker usually was not the cause.
